Auxyray writes:: Silverback is a race of gorilla, the reason the species is called this is because of the male's silverback. So technically you can say a silverback female, referring to the gorilla species' call.; 15 of 6576 found this helpful. Did you?

Little Devil writes:: It is true that only a male can be considered a silverback becuase of status in the gorilla troupes, but this could quite possibly be intentional to show that Ace isn't quite as educated about animals as he claims.; 15 of 6576 found this helpful. Did you?

Death Mage writes:: Ace didn't say it, one of the poachers did. Which you're right, might be on purpose to prove THEY don't know everything. :P; 15 of 6576 found this helpful. Did you?

fingerless_glove writes:: I quote from spud :"lure away the poachers, the tall one says "Sounds like a female silverback" " Spud said it was the poacher who said female siverback....not Ace. So quit with the blaming Ace. I think he proves himself about his knowledge of animals in the first Ace movie when he explains the difference between a porpoise and a dolphin.; 15 of 6576 found this helpful. Did you?

hopkirk (deceased) writes:: Another user already mentioned that the silverback gorrilla is a term describing a male gorilla, i am not sure about simian hierachy but i believe that the silverbakc is the dominant male. (is this right?) The fact of the matter is, that as dominant male there could be no such thing as a female dominant male gorilla, therefore it would be impossible for ace to emulate the call of a female silverback, given that the poachers are pretty thick, i'd say that the fault is in thier corner, not aces.; 15 of 6576 found this helpful.
